ers, take this matter under consider
alton we know you feel some pride
In seeing the town in which you
were born and raised attain that po-
sition and Importance which awaits
1t, and which our natural surround
ings would soon give it, If the united
effort and action of all classes of our
citizens could be speedily and earn
estly determined upon. Let all unite
and strive to bring about this attain
able and desirable result.
Mr.. Editor, has it ever been your
misfortune to be thrown into festive
group Of both sexes and hear the
vices and virtues of humanity COM
mented upon? If not, then you are
to be counted lucky individual. If
those addicted to this mode of war
fare upon the less favored and unfor-
tunate ones of their race, would hold
up natures mirror and take an occa-
sional look therein, we think, after O
little mature reflection, they would
be ready to exclaim:
| How little we know OF each other.
We pass through the journey of life,
| With Its struggles, Its fears and temptations
| Its heart-breaktng cares and its strifes.
| We see things alone on the surface,
Lor few of us glory In sin;
And AN unruffied face Is no index
or fires that rage wildly within.
How little we know of each other.
| The man who walks quietly by
With wealth and with honor and title,
And holds his head proudly on high,
| Oft carries dread secrets within him
That render existence q curse;
| Dread secrets that scar his soul over,
or crime, or misfortune, or worse.
How little we know of each other
The woman of fashion who sneers
| At her sister whom fate has abandoned
| To poverty. misery, tears,
May prove ere the sun rise tomorrow,
| More deeply immersed In disg ace,
| And the sadness sneered at In another
Be pictured upon her own face.
How little we know OF each other.
0four own hearts how little we know,
We are all feeble under temptation,
Be our station IN life high or low.
All then let sweet charity rule us,
And help one another to win
The crown that awaits those who strive for
Avoidance of shame and of sin.

kind, too, who would build and To-

owners of this land are not opposed
to the growth and prosperity of our
city, but, having plenty, they do not
give the subject serious consideration.
Suppose the number of acres they
own would, if properly laid off, make
two hundred one-half acre lots, and
the owners could be induced to sell
every other lot-or one-half OF the
number-so as to induce good me-
chanics to buy and build this coming
summer, this would so enhance the
value of unsold lots that they would
prove a bonanza to the owners, and
be instrumental in adding several
hundred industrious citizens to our
population, which would add largely
to the business of the city in every
respect. This southeastern portion
of GAINESVILLE is better suited, has
larger territory now unoccupied, and
offers more advantages to seekers for
small homes, or large ones either,
than can be found in any other direc-

Combs in the Old Days.

Combs, both for use and ornament,
are of very great antiquity, says the
historian. The Egyptians, Greeks and
Romans made their combs from hard
wood. generally box wood, and this
material was used for ages, till horn,
ivory, gold and shell was substituted.
The gold comb of the Middle Ages,
worn as ornaments or to support the
hair, were frequently adorned with
precious stones. The horny, overlap
ping plates of the hawk-bill turtle were
known to the ancient Romans, who
used them in inlaying furniture and in
other ornamental work. The tortoise
shell afterwards became an important
article Of commerce. The invention of
vulcanized india rubber and expert
ments with hard rubber resulted in the
discovery that it is one of the best and
cheapest materials ever used for making
combs. Dry Goods Chronicle.

The Kinds In General Use and Their Ar
rangemcnt.
Fur trimmings are arranged in wide
borders on the foot of skirts of cloth
and velvet gowns, and in still wider
borders on long cloaks. The fancy for
lcngthwise trimmings on jackets ex.
tends to those of cloth rs well as OF
seal-skin, borders being reserved fol-
long garments. and indeed many pre-.
fer long cloaks trimmed down the front
and back instead of in border across
the foot, which detracts from the ap.
parent height. Pipings or edgings OF
fur, making sometimes small roll
like binding. are used in short furs
such as beaver, seal and Persian lamb
skin. Russian sable is the costly brown
fur chosen by the rich; very pretty
brown effects are given in mink by hav.
ing rows of the dark tails crossing
wide border, or else the dark stripe on
the back of the animal passes down the
middle of band of the four-inch trim.
ming width. The new wolverine also
comes in brown sable shades, and is
very durable for trimming muffs, boas,
etc. The old-fashioned stone-marten is
again fashionable brown fur. and
natural plucked beaver is still used,
Notwithstanding its many rivals.
Strong and snowy trimmings for
large garments are borders of the black
bear, or of the lighter brown bears.
Imported wraps and tailor gowns are
trimmed with black caracal, the glossy
fleece with large waves formerly called
Astrakhan, and once in vogue for
sacques; this rivals the Persian lamb
skin with its smaller waves and shorter
fleece. The genuine Astrakhan, closely
curled and without luster, is especially
liked for trimming mourning garments.
The revived caracal is originally OF
dark brown shades, and is shown thus
as trimmings. muff, cape or boa. The
fox furs, blue, gray, silver black and
the cross fox, all remain in fashion, alsC
the various black furs with long fleece,
such as lynx and black marten; c. lored
beavers are less used than formerly.
The raccoon is u snowy, light and mex
pensive fur, and the prettily shaded
skins of the gray Australian opossum
arc now much used. Krimmer (or
gray Astrakhan), chinchilla and OF.
ter, also spotted leopard borders, are
chosen alike for ladies and childrcn's
wraps. Vests, waistcoats, plastrons,
and revers of the short-heeced furs are
on many winter garments, and entire
lower skirts of furs are among many
midwinter luxuries for gowns of cloth
and velvet. White fox and the crinkled
Chinese lamb-skin (called also manda-
rim lamb) trim evening cloaks and the
white cloaks worn by children. Brown
furs, especially natural plucked beaver
and brook otter. are also handsome on
children's white cloaks. Tail trim.
mings like fringe are fashionable in the
dark furs for edging visites and other
mantles of fur, plush. velvet or cloth.

A THANKSGIVING THOUGHT.

But grief
Mild and brief
Unfolds in the heart OF Good Cheor.
A sorrow brcathes over tho lips,
The eye with mist-drop is poarled;
a sigh for humnnity's slips,
A tear for the ills OF the world.
For the deep
Can not sleep,
And shadows all through It lie curled.
But the woes OF The world are Its gains;
Let gladness come back to the lips;
Let plenty como in by the wains,
Let blessings 20 out by the ships.
Aud the gay
Let them pray,
Grapes nre better for gentle frost nips.
Do not sorrow; give thanks, Life is growth
Sweet Good ia built upward by i'll;
The Spirit Of Life works in both;
Sharp Need is tho parent OF will,
And tho stings
Error brings
Prick us up the invisible hill.
Imperfection is one OF earth's laws.
A principle rousing US here;
In the yoke with perfection 1t draws
Mankind to the end OF the sphere,
And one pain
Turns to gain
In the gentle old ago OF the year.
